the protestors that got gassed last night were not peaceful. they were a small group there to intentionally cause problems.

The protesters aren't the ones behaving violently. Why should I stop supporting the protesters just because the police prefer violent confrontations?
Well done making shit up. No one is saying if you work hard you shouldn't have opportunity. Those ships coming into Oakland are full of products that used to be made in America until the 1% decided they could make obscene profits by firing the Americans who made them and opening up factories in east Asia.

I'm unaware of that. It contradicts both the mayor and police reports from last night. The police announced they were going to do this late last night because of the ban they enforced on people being their at that time. They said nothing about protesters being violent, in fact they called the protests peaceful right up until they started gassing everyone.

I agree that it could have been worse if the guy was more seriously injured. HUGE "BUT"...... and I already know where u stand Dan....
That driver could have defused the whole thing... let the protesters who were stopped in front pass by. And when the guy started hitting the car, the driver should have left the vehicle put and located some cops. There were many cops around.
It could have been handled a million times better than it was.

All i have to say is, with police provocateurs inciting violence are there, and they're spotted, and if the police themselves are blatantly getting violent (tear gas, flash bangs, rubber bullets, batons, mace, tazers, projectile bean bags, LRAD) If they are pulling these tactics with this regime and essentially creating a warfare of the bankers VS the american uprising, then the people need to stand up and fight back, you fight the bank and their army, the police are clearly anti american fighting american uprising, which is constitutionally correct, then you take a fucking eye for an eye.
there is a group called "black block". they were all wearing block hoodies and face masks. they were breaking windows and setting barricades on fire in the streets. the peaceful protestors were trying to stop them and where trying to put out the fires when they were attacked themselves. this is when the police finally moved in. it started at midnight and was over by 2am. i'm sitting here right now watching it on the local news.
they had the port blocked until 10am this morning. it was opened when everybody was taken to breakfast to talk.

These are police provocateurs, its known business.there is a group called "black block". they were all wearing block hoodies and face masks. they were breaking windows and setting barricades on fire in the streets. the peaceful protestors were trying to stop them and where trying to put out the fires when they were attacked themselves. this is when the police finally moved in. it started at midnight and was over by 2am. i'm sitting here right now watching it on the local news.
Then the police behind the badge says okay we can move in now because they're getting violent.
When in reality its their own undercover officers doing it.

Ahhh. I did not know that. That explains why they were having a big discussion on how to get rid of black bloc today.there is a group called "black block". they were all wearing block hoodies and face masks. they were breaking windows and setting barricades on fire in the streets. the peaceful protestors were trying to stop them and where trying to put out the fires when they were attacked themselves. this is when the police finally moved in. it started at midnight and was over by 2am. i'm sitting here right now watching it on the local news.
some people feel a violent uprising is the only way.
history has proven time and again that it works.

true. who knows, they might be right. All I know is when I go to these things I don't want to fight the cops. I've experienced that before and it's extremely over rated.some people feel a violent uprising is the only way.

people say "the military would never fire on their own people". cops do it every day.

The people that have said that obviously have not seen a soldier "just following orders" imo.people say "the military would never fire on their own people". cops do it every day.

And that seems to be happening more often since the economy has tanked.people say "the military would never fire on their own people". cops do it every day.
I heard a cop say he has noticed an big increase in the public's general disrespect for law enforcement and that is why cops are reacting by shooting first and questioning later.

why would i aspire to be part of the group that rapes others to further themselves?
i am MUCH happier earning a meager living with my own two hands, and NOT raping and sponging the work or others.
besides, if we are all part of "the 1%", who is going to scrub the toilets?
i don't see anyone getting angry at ben and jerry.
you can make it to the top without fucking over everyone along the way, ya know.
